Novel Full Chapter 800 The Grand Idea
Constellations were the most powerful of Familiars.
There exists a cadre of Familiars; ranging from The Common Grade, The Noble Grade, The Imperial Grade, The Fable Grade, The Legendary Grade, and The Transcendent Grade.
Out of all these grades, Constellations were the only ones in the Transcendent Grade.
The Phoenixes who were known to be the most powerful in the world were in the highest level of the Legendary Grade and the Transcendent grade was often mistakenly attributed to them.
True Transcendent Grades, however, existed beyond the bounds of the world. They existed beyond the reaches of space and were spread across the universe.
The myths were made up of twelve Constellations, though it was unknown if they really existed. However, if they did…
… Then they would be among the most powerful beings ever to exist.

Yet, Neron possessed three of them.
Utilizing Grand Fusion Mode, he harnessed their power and transformed his already-perfect state into an even better one.
“Libra. Sagittarius. Capricorn.” He whispered as he ascended to a new form.
He now had flowing white apparel, with what appeared to be a scale floating on his right shoulder, an arrow on his left one, and a majestic incorporeal clock behind him.
His white hair grew even longer and a strange design appeared on his face, around his eyes and on his forehead, resembling a universal concept that defined explanation.
Finally, in front of him appeared a concept similar to a small universe. It was woven to resemble an orb, but it literally depicted the cosmos, galaxies, and innumerable stars within it.
“Do you know what happens when you have so much power? Who am I kidding, you definitely do…” Neron began, smiling at the paralyzed Nether.
“To be honest, even with this power, I wouldn’t stand a chance against your complete form, in your realm, now would I? Fortunately, the conditions are just perfect here.”
The universe before him slowly began to warble and move—the stars shifting.
“Not only are you mortal here, so long as the right conditions are established, you are also subject to certain laws. In your previous body, the Arcanas negated the effect of Law, but in this state of yours, you’re more than vulnerable.”
Perhaps it was Neron’s intention for Jared to fail all along. After all, that would place the enemy in a body that had more weaknesses than the one before it.
But to what end?
“Even now, without [The World] connecting you to your world, you should still be able to resonate with it. Also, your original body still has a connection with this one.”
“What do you plan to do about it?” The Nether’s eyes narrowed on Neron, cautiously planning what he would do based on the response given.
“Just as you destroyed all of Jared’s Souls based on this resonating link, I plan on finally eliminating you. Jared is right, after all. You’re too much of a threat to simply seal you away until the next event, and the event after that.”
The Nether would somehow find a way to return—perhaps not in their generation, but in another one. Or what if he chose another timeline?
As long as his threat hovered above their world, he was more than an active danger. Thus, the best method would be to destroy him.
But how?
“That’s impossible. I existed before even time began. You can’t destroy me. Doing so would mean collapsing the whole Nether Tree, and—”
“The Tree sprouts from the Root, which originates from Origin, where ‘All Things’ lie. You are simply a supervisor, created from Origin to monitor and prune your world as you see fit. Your end will be of little consequence to the continuing of the Nether Realm.”
“Tch. It’s still impossible! I cannot be destroyed. I exist beyond the bounds of—”
Neron sighed loudly, interrupting Nether’s angry rant. It wasn’t quite clear who the Nether was trying to convince—Neron, or himself.
“Your main self is currently incorporeal—similar to a Soul. That is why you require an active agent to act beyond the realm of the Root. If I hijack this body of yours and use that Resonance against your defenceless soul, what do you think will happen?”
“You can’t destroy me!”
“I can’t truly. However, I wasn’t really going to. You are a primordial entity that has existed since time was founded.”
“E-exactly! I am—”
“Why don’t I simply return you to the state before that?” Neron grinned wider.
An air of unease followed his statement and dead silence took over.
“Time began to exist at a point. That coincides with when the world BEGAN, and you BEGAN to exist in a reality with time. What if I returned you to whatever form you were in before time, and ensure you never have a place in a temporal reality?”
It was a complicated venture. Too ambitious for a mere human to propose. The dawn of time marked the very start of everything that existed.
The Planck Time.
If Neron was going to undertake this task, he would need to return to a specific point in time, kick the Nether out of it, and shut the doors within a Planck time, thus technically destroying the Primordial entity from everything that existed simply by ensuring it never did, to begin with.
Unfortunately, this task…
“It’s impossible! You don’t have enough energy for that! No one does!”
The amount of time Neron would need to bypass was something no mortal could ever attain. It defied the laws of the world! Not even Aether could grant him such power because his body wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Besides, doing that would mean he could even destroy Aether if he wanted. That was too dangerous a power for any one person to possess.
“Haven’t you heard the popular saying? Magic exists to make the impossible possible.” Neron smiled, turning back to look at the blond-haired boy who was watching him intently.
“You’re going to want to check this out, Jared. It should be fun.”
